About
QuantDinger is an open-source AI-powered quantitative trading platform that democratizes algorithmic trading by making advanced strategies accessible to everyone. It supports trading across multiple asset classes including A-shares, US stocks, futures, cryptocurrencies, and forex, with 24/7 market scanning and real-time push notifications. The platform's standout feature is its AI-driven strategy development pipeline: it can automatically generate trading strategy code, run backtests, analyze equity curves and risk metrics, and call large language models to iteratively refine strategy parameters. Users can write Python-native strategies using DataFrame-based IndicatorStrategy or event-driven ScriptStrategy patterns, with AI assisting in code drafting while users retain full ownership. The deterministic backtesting engine models commissions and slippage, generates trade-by-trade analytics and equity curves, and pins every backtest run to a code hash and configuration snapshot for perfect reproducibility. Pre-built trading bots (Grid, Martingale, Trend Following, DCA) are execution-aware and restart-resilient. The entire platform is self-hosted via a one-line Docker Compose command that brings up Flask API, PostgreSQL 16, Redis, and Nginx — all data stays on your infrastructure. An optional MCP package enables integration with AI coding tools like Cursor and Claude Code. For anyone looking to combine AI with quantitative trading while maintaining complete data sovereignty, QuantDinger is the most accessible open-source option.
